First published as papers in Fraser’s Magazine and later revised and enlarged by his son, Croker’s walk follows the old road out of London to Fulham. He stops at each notable house, garden and inn along the way to tell of the people who lived there, from aristocrats and botanists to the ill-fated Countess of Strathmore.
Rich local history for Londoners and anyone curious about the city’s vanished edges. Download the free EPUB.
